but a buy two get three free deal can make things seem too good to be true. (Even when you know they’re bad for you)

But I can’t tell you any of those things. This past week I have been what I would call “foodie slumming”. I have succumb to food on the go and quick eats. I have drank Diet Coke…three times! Our suppers have been less than exciting: grilled cheeses, tacos, and tapas. But when life gets busy, you persevere. You buckle down and push forward. And you stock you fridge with foods that will get you through, like snack plates with gluten free crackers, 2%milk sharp cheddar, and almonds. And you find lunches that require zero prep time in the morning and are ready in a flash.

You are not alone. This past week, I have eaten all of the following for dinner: Cinnamon Chex,Ian's chicken nuggets, and grilled cheese with tomato soup (Pacific Organics, I think, comes in a carton and is quite yummy). It seems like there is an event every night! Tonight I am making homemade chili (pulling leftover cornbread from freezer) and decorating the tree.
